You captured my heart

with

Your strength and intelligence
Your kindness and tender heart
Your vulnerability
Your loyalty
Your soft sweet eyes

Your protection of me

My need to protect you
and keep you safe

I love your sly sense of humor
and silent communication
I love how I want to keep you
healthy and happy
I love that my heart panics when
I think I have lost my connection
to you, because it
confirms that I still
love you
and always will.

I love that I would not fear
death
to save you; an amazing truth for me
to understand.

I love that when I close
my eyes to sleep
that the only dream
I want to have
is a beautiful one of
you,
even if it is
my
last.

You have become a part of me.
